Newk’s Eatery to open in Katy

Newk’s Eatery will open its second Houston area location on July 28 at 20802 Katy Freeway in Katy, and two additional stores are planned for Houston by the end of 2015, according to a company statement.

The original Newk’s Eatery opened in Cypress at 25712 Northwest Freeway in 2007. The casual upscale restaurant offers salads, sandwiches, pizzas, soups and homemade cakes.

The restaurant will have indoor and outdoor seating and seat 200 people. A grand opening celebration will take place on August 2.

Oxford-based Newk’s Eatery has 69 locations in 13 states, including one in Austin.
